Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2008 R2 fix release.
Symptoms
After you enable Change Data Capture (CDC) on some columns in a table in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2, all the columns in the table are incorrectly marked as replicated. Additionally, Data Manipulation Language (DML) statements do not run when you try to run the statements on the columns that are not enabled for change data capture (CDC).
For example, you receive the following error message when you run the sp_rename stored procedure to rename a column that does not have CDC enabled after you enable CDC on some columns:
Caution: Changing any part of an object name could break scripts and stored procedures.
Msg 4928, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_rename, Line 547
Cannot alter column 'column name' because it is 'REPLICATED'.
Msg 0, Level 20, State 0, Line 0
A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.
